But Have You Tried …? Openings in L.A. are constant, and this month is shaping up to be a scorcher. The Benjamin in Hollywood launched a bar downstairs (and teamed up with experts Jason Lee of N/Soto and baroo, and Chad Austin of Bootlegger Tiki to do it). There’s also Lucia, serving Caribbean flavors on Fairfax, and Cannonball, a sophisticated, two-story bistro in South Pasadena from the Hippo and Triple Beam folks. For the latest opening intel, check out our guide to all the newest spots.
Spend 72 Perfect Hours in L.A.: Although this month’s weather is famously fickle (we’re keeping an eye out for you, June Gloom), nothing can take away from the glory that is an L.A. summer, complete with half-day Fridays (sanctioned or not) and long weekends packed to the max with fun. Resy contributor Kelly Dobkin has you covered with a guide to an ideal long weekend eating your way across the city, an indispensable resource strategically designed to move across the city from west to east.

Get Lucky: Now that summer’s officially here, for reasons we can’t fully explain, we can just tell that good fortune lies ahead.

Welcome to Resy’s The One Who Keeps the Book, a series that gets down to brass tacks, asking places like Budonoki, Holbox, Lucky Tiki, Mother Wolf, and Anajak Thai the question on everyone’s minds: How the [bleep] do I get in?
